Someone’s Girlfriend #2

The second volume of Nikumaru's Someone's Girlfriend arrives with a cover that turns up the tension immediately — a flushed, brown-haired young woman in a loosened school uniform and dangling necktie gazes downward with an expression caught somewhere between surprise and invitation. Nikumaru's artwork renders every detail with striking warmth, from the soft dappled light across a tatami-floored room to the barely-contained emotion written across her face. If this 2024 series has been on your radar, Volume 2 makes a compelling case for jumping in.
